Blanket

this is the blanket my mother re-designed
it used to be her mothers
and now will enter a new life
as a cushion on a rocking-chair in Sweden

my parents enjoy it all:
the cutest dog
the beautiful blanket
and that fireplace...

  1. That is a beautiful blanket Maaike. You are so lucky to have something that has been in the family for so long. The doggy has certainly picked a cosy place to sleep! xx

  9. Thank you for all your lovely comments on my mom's blanket! She will be delighted to read them :-).

    To all of you wondering about the dog: it is my parent's dog. I wish we had one of our own... And yes, it is a french basset hound. Columbo Inspector's dog is an english basset: the french are a little more active and slim. But both are sooo cute if you ask me.
